The leopard plant has the characteristic of being used for ornamental purposes when there are yellow spots on the leaves, and is widely used as a bed plant for viewing flowers. To set several indicators to predict the growth of crops with ornamental value, and to quantitatively express the relationship between the indicators are necessary. In this study, we determine a model that estimates the leaf area and the number of flower of Farfugium japonicum Kitam. using leaf length and width, and conducting a regression analysis on some regression models. As an indicator for estimating the leaf area and the number of flower, the leaf length and width of F. japonicum were measured and applied to 8 regression models. As a result of regression analysis of 8 models that estimated leaf area and the number of flower, R2 values of the linear models were all higher than 0.84 and 0.80. As a result of validation, using the most reliable model among the models for estimating the leaf area and the number of flowering, R2 was 0.90 and 0.82, respectively. Using a model that estimates various indicators that can be used for quality evaluation from easy-to-measure morphological factors, the evaluation of ornamental plants will be facilitated.

Chrysanthemum flower model trap developed by modifying an artificial yellow chrysanthemum flower was reported to be more attractive to flower thrips than a commercial yellow sticky trap. The installation of the traps (20 traps per 50 m2 plot), especially, reduced the seasonal populations of Frankliniella intonsa Trybom (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) on strawberry flowers in greenhouse by 82% compared to the untreated control. In this study, we tested if the installation of the flower model traps can reduce thrips population on a red pepper field located in Seokdong, Andong. The pepper field was treated two times with pesticides during the period of experiment. The traps were installed in plant canopy at different densities (0, 5, 10, 20 traps) in 20 plots (3×5 m2 each) using a completely randomized design. Population of thrips was examined on the collected pepper flowers from 1 July to 29 July in 2009. Thrips found on the flowers were all F. intonsa. Significance effect of treatment and sampling date was found from repeated-measure analysis of variance. The highest density of traps significantly reduced female and male F. intonsa population by 60% and 46% compared to the control, respectively. However, no difference in immature population was found among the treatments. These results indicate flower model trap can be an additional tool for the management of flower thrips on field red pepper.

Chrysanthemum flower model trap (CFMT) developed to attract the flower thrips was evaluated for its optimal trap density that is required to manage the population of flower thrips in a strawberry greenhouse. CFMTs were installed in different rates per unit area (10m×5m), i.e., control (no trap), low (5 traps), medium (10 traps), and high (20 traps), in three different strawberry greenhouses at Namhoo, Andong. From each plot, 10 flowers were sampled every week from 16 May 2008 to 6 June 2008. Five traps were also randomly collected from each plot every week to record the number of flower thrips trapped. The seasonal number of both female and male thrips collected in the flowers was significantly lower in the plots with high density of traps compared to the control. In the plot with medium level of traps, less seasonal number of male F. intonsa were found in the strawberry flowers compared to the plot with low level of traps or control. When the numbers of thrips in the flowers were plotted against the numbers of thrips trapped in the CFMTs, significant correlation was found in female thrips only. However, there was no significant difference in seasonal number of male and female thrips trapped in the CFMTs randomly collected from the plots among the treatments. In conclusion CFMT used in medium or high density in the strawberry greenhouse reduced infestation of F. intonsa in the flowers and can be a good addition to integrated pest management tactics against anthophilous thrips.
